*Manages to get to the computer to post again after it flat-lining on her for 9 hours yesterday - mammoth powercut whilst the main events were kicking off*

See! See what I have to put up with! PMSL I came on at the end of all this hilarity and was immediately mobbed by Middle America in full outrage and couldn't even post in the off-RP thread for having to scream at one of my fellow admins to get out and let me and my co-runner sort it - Tony you must treasure all of us on here you really must 'cos we're all angels to the last one!

Dearest fallen angel (pooh of course) - thank you for the many laughs and making a stupid situation bearable, but flaunting your very superior intellect and acid wit was at one point putting several people I do need to help me get things running well enough to open properly on there on the verge of walking out on me so I badly need a bit of a rest now please before we have the next 'learned' argument.

24 hours is all I ask

chris *hugs muchly* thank you so much for posting and for keeping Ms Palin/Sharon occupied most entertainingly for some of the time!

Actually this is a truly great area of study that I'm utterly fascinated with on the nature of satire and why the British appear to be the only nation who can handle it at all well most of the time? The fairly clear if not outrageous send up with the Limbaugh/Obama comment went completely over everybody's head except for me and my co-runner's

The world would a quieter and sadder place if we were all the same but boy is it worth remembering that it's certainly a funny old world. I'd much sooner laugh at it any day

I didn't quite understand the bit after "whispers", but it sounds no good. I want to see how many people I can annoy. People who talk about the "biased liberal US media" and how I shouldn't post under the influence of a "mind-altering substance" (beer?! ) deserve to be annoyed.

I've just read the thread in question, & I have to say pooh, you showed remarkable grace under pressure. Not sure I could have done the same (although I almost wet my pants at the whole politics thing). Naughty pooh!

What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!
